If these were actual requests humans would make, I’m sure it would not be a difficult task to implement such functionality.

Your example requests are at best extreme outliers, and not good tests of smart home assistants.

I think the point is that you shouldn’t have to explicitly implement any of this stuff. It should “understand” basic commands that include sequences and counts.

It seems like ChatGPT could be a giant leap ahead of the current crop of home assistants.

I would be happy to be able to schedule lighting and media properly. Just the basics actually working would be great.
